Sign up for the World Record Attempt

On Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 September, Central London Alliance is attempting to set a new world record for the largest CPR relay ever attempted. Every participant must be CPR-trained - so even if we fall short of the record, thousands of people will walk away with a skill that could save a life.

This is Central London Alliance's mission: to make CPR knowledge as common as knowing your own phone number, and to bring workers, organisations and communities across Central London together around something that genuinely matters.

Why CPR?

Every three minutes, someone in the UK dies from a cardiac arrest. Fewer than 1 in 10 survive when it happens outside a hospital. But one simple action changes everything: if a bystander performs CPR within two minutes, survival chances rise by 81% - and the risk of serious brain damage drops by 95%.

Cardiac arrest doesn't discriminate. Every week, 12 young, otherwise healthy people in the UK lose their lives to sudden cardiac death. Knowing CPR costs nothing. Not knowing it can cost everything.

How to take part

Being involved takes four easy steps:

1. Register your interest: Fill out the form below to register your interest to take part in the world record attempt.

2. Be CPR trained: If you're already CPR-certified, you're all set. If not, we'll send you a free 15-minute online course from the British Heart Foundation — something you can do from your sofa that could one day save a life. Once you have completed your training, send us your certificate.

3. Be available on 22 and 23 September: Be part of something you will talk about for years to come. The attempt will be taking place in London and we will share more information on how to secure your spot in due course.

4. Spread the word: We need 4,000 participants, and the best way to do this is one conversation at a time. Tell your colleagues, your friends, your group chats. The more people you bring, the bigger the impact.

Fill in the form below and we'll take it from there — sending you your training link, joining instructions, and everything else you need for the day.
